you paid for this: one in a millennial & kate kennedy's whiteness
my foray into Kate Kennedy
Every few years, a blonde, white woman comes across the social media sphere, and sometimes into the book world, that people are just totally obsessed with. Right now, it is Kate Kennedy, who seems to have a group of lovely 35-45-year-old sing-songy writing style friends that are also popular online, and I can't pretend it's not giving 2014 era Taylor-Swift-Squad which was famously criticized for the amplification of thinness, whiteness, and exclusivity that felt mean.
The Swift reference isn't an accident; if you are unfamiliar with Swift's lyrics, you'll miss a good chunk of what Kennedy is saying and think she's a great lyricist because they’re everywhere in the book.
Did I enjoy one in a millennial?
